Dillon Baker

Hey guys I’m John, and dillon is one of my closest buddies. We’ve been friends for a couple of years now and we been through a lot together! Good times and bad. Right now he’s going through a rough time. Dillon was hospitalized last week due to a bad infection that is in his spine. Last year he had open heart surgery and we all thought all was good now for him. That isn’t the case. Dillon is one of those guys that won’t tell you what’s wrong until he has to. Around Christmas time, after proposing to the love of his life, and taking a trip to go spend Christmas with his son, he started not feeling well. After his fiancée, friends and my wife and I have been telling him to go to the dr to get checked out, he wouldn’t listen to us and kept saying it will go away. His fiancée Michelle had surprised Dillon a trip to Disney for them and his son and his son’s mother Kellie. Toward the end of the trip, Dillon started taking a turn for the worse and went straight to the hospital coming back from Disney. He didn’t want to end the trip early because he wants to be with his son. After a couple of days of test and being admitted they discovered that he has MRSA in the spine, and the estimate time of being in the hospital will be about 2 months. After that he will have to go for physical therapy for his back. I’m asking for prayer warriors and everyone if they can to please help by donating towards his medical bills. He will be out of work for possibly 3 months, his fiancée Michelle is working numerous of hours to keep up with the house expenses and to make sure that they can start paying off his medical bills. But it is piling in faster than she can keep up. For a bag of antibiotics fluids is 1400 dollars and he has to have it twice a day. My heart is breaking for them. They are suppose to get married at the end of this year, and they put off the thought of the wedding so they can focus on the bills. Dillon is a hard working dad, brother, friend, and advocate. We been in the recovery program together for some time now, and life has gotten better. To see him go through this is horrible. So anything will help.
